I agree with Arcanine that negative feedback can be a helpful critiquing tool, and that the builder can learn from it. Far too often, I see sub-par builds getting great praise; not in this case, but other threads on the forums, I think that with the medium you've chosen to build your armor with, you're doing an incredible job.
To be honest, I'm also in agreement that the battle damage seems excessive (there is a happy medium to achieve a worn look without going extreme). However, that's just my opinion. It's Cheifer's armor, and he's building/detailing it to his liking. Opinions can be voiced (that's why we're all here, right?), but what to do with those opinions is ultimately up to the builder.
Keep up the good work, Chiefer.
